For waxing only....the B&D or any cheap random orbital buffer would do  (preferably with velcro backing plate la).

OMG...you didn't say you have a LORRY!!! If you're really dead serious, that is DEFINITELY a job for a DA man.

Ok la...maybe the Bosch with some choice of good quality pads and polishes would do if you're on a budget. But, if not, I DEFINITELY would recommend you to consider the Rupes Bigfoot....

Oh...AH only have the Bosch and the B&D, no DA there. And, again, GRexer is right, forget about the B&D. Personally, it's not worth in my book if you're serious.

I bought PG's polymer sealant like yesterday and had it applied on the front section of my abah's car. It says not to apply wax on it, but internet searches tell me that it should be fine to do so hmm.gif. Should I apply wax?

Yeah. I have seen that before biggrin.gif. I think I'll just give it a shot since it has been probably at least 12 hours since the application of the sealant.

permanon > sealant : would love to know if the sealant can bond properly or not and whether it'll effect the durability of the sealant or remove the permanon
sealant > wax : normal la....but with permanon at the base....don't know
wax > LSD : you'd be in the clouds flying with the birds man....make love not war....HAHAHAHA.....

LOL i don get the last sentence xD ok since no one has done this ridiculous way before, i will review it soon biggrin.gif any idea how to know if the sealant bond properly or not?

QUOTE(mav3rick @ Apr 9 2013, 11:06 AM)
the tyres are coated with Meg's Endurance Tyre gel. It looks good only for a couple of days smile.gif after a 2nd wash it looses it shine by quite a bit..
*
wa, -.- u need to be very hardworking in maintaining the shine then XD Extreme effort for me lol...

Well.. It's actually LSP (Last Step Product), whatever you choose to put as the last step of protection, could be sealant, could be wax, usually wax if you plan to top over a sealant.

Ah ic biggrin.gif thanks bro for correction wink.gif My final step was meant for detailer(e.g. meguair's detailer).
